Experienced and Dedicated Coach

Mr. Henry Tan, a former national lifesaving coach with over 30 years of experience, is deeply committed to building a strong foundation in swimming. He has mentored numerous students who have gone on to become swim coaches themselves, continuing to inspire a love for water sports.

Structured Progression

The lifesaving swim syllabus, regulated by the Singapore Life Saving Society, consists of several awards and stages, with the most common being Lifesaving 1, 2, 3, and the Bronze Medallion (BM). Lifesaving 1, 2, and 3 cover the basics of lifesaving skills and techniques, aiming to equip learners with preliminary water safety knowledge, including resuscitation and water rescue skills. These foundational stages lead up to the Bronze Medallion, which emphasizes swim fitness, rescue methods under time constraints, and essential Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) training for emergency situations.
